SHIP POLLUTION

Because of increased traffic in ocean ports, pollution from ships also directly affects coastal areas. The pollution produced affects biodiversity, climate, food, and human health.
1. Oil spills
Oil spills have devastating effects on the environment. Crude oil contains polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) which are very difficult to clean up, and last for years in the sediment and marine environment. Marine species constantly exposed to PAHs can exhibit developmental problems, susceptibility to disease, and abnormal reproductive cycles.
By the sheer amount of oil carried, modern oil tankers must be considered something of a threat to the environment. The International Tanker Owners Pollution Federation has researched 9,351 accidental spills since 1974. According to this study, most spills result from routine operations such as loading cargo, discharging cargo, and taking on fuel oil. Spills resulting from accidents like collisions, groundings, hull failures, and explosions are much larger.
The United States passed the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA-90), which included a stipulation that all tankers entering its waters be double-hulled by 2015. The European Union passed its own stringent anti-pollution packages, which require all tankers entering its waters to be double-hulled by 2010.
2. Ballast water
When a large vessel such as a container ship or an oil tanker unloads car- go, seawater is pumped into compartments in the hull to help stabilize and balance the ship. During loading, this ballast water is pumped out from these compartments. One of the problems with ballast water transfer is the transport of harmful organisms.
Ballast and bilge discharge from ships can also spread human pathogens and other harmful diseases and toxins potentially causing health issues for humans and marine life alike. Discharges into coastal waters, along with other sources of marine pollution, have the potential to be toxic to marine plants, animals, and microorganisms, causing alterations such as changes in growth, disruption of hormone cycles, birth defects, suppression of the immune system, and disorders resulting in cancer, tumors, and genetic abnormalities or even death.
3. Exhaust emissions
Exhaust emissions from ships are considered to be a significant source of air pollution. Seagoing vessels are responsible for an estimated 14 percent of emissions of nitrogen from fossil fuels and 16 percent of the emissions of sulphur from petroleum uses into the atmosphere. In Europe ships make up a large percentage of the sulphur introduced to the air, as much sulfur as all the cars, lorries and factories in Europe put together. By 2010, up to 40% of air pollution over land could come from ships.

to track and relate fuel consumption to the work of the vessel −
Marine fuel management (MFM) is a multi-level approach to measuring, monitoring, and reporting fuel usage on a boat or ship, with the goals of reducing fuel usage, increasing operational efficiency, and improving fleet management oversight. MFM has grown in importance due to the rising costs of marine fuel and increased governmental pressures to reduce the pollution generated by the world‘s fleet.
Effective MFM requires that you know: how much fuel is used? how the fuel was used? what things impact fuel usage? and by how much?
MFM allows a fleet owner to track actual fuel consumption and relate fuel consumption to the work performed by the vessel. It supports the analysis of the effectiveness of operating strategies and helps develop a clearer understanding of how well a vessel uses its fuel.

Good afternoon. I am an inspector of Marine Pollution Control Department1. The point is that we have found a big oil spill on the water surface not far from your ship. I‘m afraid, you‘re mistaken, Inspector. Out ship has got all the necessary facilities to prevent any pollution.
It‘s all very good. Perhaps I‘m wrong, but I‘m on duty to check all the possible sources of pollution. D‘you keep an Oil Record
Book2? Yes, certainly. Here you are. Oh, yes, according to your entries3 you have had no spillage for a long time. By the way, I can show you our International Oil Pollution Prevention Certificate. And you can make a tour of the ship to make sure that there are no traces of oil spill or oil leakage. Have you taken oil samples from that area? Yes, we have.
Then I‘ll ask you to take samples of oil from our tanks and the
analysis will show you if those samples are identical or not. Thank you for your assistance, Sir.

Good morning, will you take a seat, please.

to our ship for our having allegedly3 spilled fuel oil. Yesterday the cast inspector came on board our ship and carried out an investigation4. How did they explain the purpose of their investigation? They suspected that our ship had poured out oil into the water. The spill was noticed from the coast guard helicopter. Did they take samples of oil from the ship‘s tank? Yes, they did. They hinted5 that the coast guards were checking 5 or 6 ships in this very area. What do the pilots report? They report that they have seen traces of oil on the ladder. Is it really oil? No, it isn‘t oil. There are remains6 of an old cargo of sugar left from the last voyage. When they are raw they remind of molasses7. I must have scrapings of this substance. They will be analyzed in
my office. Well, may I see the vessel‘s Oil and Ballast Pumping
Record Book? Here you are. As you can see 6 days before the incident 2 vessel‘s sump8 tanks were washed and filled with sea water. Then the water contaminated with heavy oil fuel was passed through the separator in the engine room. It seems to me the analysis made by the Port Authorities has not proved your fault9. So far they abstain from arresting our vessel. That‘s a good sign. I think the Authorities are awaiting the results of the laboratory tests before deciding whether to lay charges. So, let‘s hope for the best.
